The bench is over three meters high and five meters wide. From here you have a wonderful view of the Hochkelberg, over Köttelbach and into the Trierbachtal. If you stay longer, it is advisable to put on a jacket.

April 6, 2026,Wanderung ab Köttelbach (Geheimnis Natur und Leben kurz - Themenrundweg der Geschichtsstrasse ab Köttelbach)

Planned for today's Easter Monday the following tour: eifel.info/touren/geheimnis-natur-und-leben

I modified the hike a bit in some places today. In itself, the tour offers quite nice views into the Eifel and provides some interesting information through installed hiking signs along the way. I found the circular route quite varied, as it led not only through open spaces but also through …

A circular hike on the trail of life.
Start is at the parking lot at the grill hut. A highlight there is the dangling bench.
From the parking lot you hike downhill through the village and pass great gardens and plants facing the street. It was nice to look at. I also passed a pottery that looked very inviting. I've …

September 25, 2021,Geheimnis Natur und Leben kurz - Themenrundweg der Geschichtsstrasse ab Köttelbach

Easy to walk circular route, especially with dogs. Lots of exercise with a vision. The path is actually well signposted, but you have to pay attention to which themed path you are walking. There is overlap. The off-grid sections are also stingy with the necessary signage. And for the section at the Moosbruch Weiher, the GPS specifications and the non-existent …
